“Messner is not only the greatest high-altitude mountaineer the world has ever known; he is probably the best it will ever know.” ——TIME

• Reveals the long view from an icon who, with age, has added wisdom to his list of accomplishments

• Messner climbing firsts: the world’s fourteen peaks taller than 8000 meters; Everest solo; Everest without supplemental oxygen

• Author of more than 60 books

Reinhold Messner: My Life at the Limit, the newest book by the famed mountaineer, is a conversation between Messner and interviewer Thomas Hüetlin, an award-winning German journalist. It reveals a more thoughtful and conversational Messner than one finds in his previous books, with the “talk” between Messner and Hüetlin covering not only the highlights of Messner’s climbing career, but also his treks across Tibet, the Gobi, and Antarctica; his five-year-stint as a member of the European Parliament; his encounter with and study of the yeti; his thoughts on traditional male/female roles; and much more. Readers learn about Messner’s childhood, his thoughts about eating ice cream with girls (against), politics (mostly liberal), and his technique for killing chickens (sharp scissors).

Messner is known as one of history’s greatest Himalayan mountaineers, a man who pushed back the frontiers of the possible for a whole generation of climbers. While the interest in My Life at the Limit is that it exposes much more of the man than his climbing career, that career is still utterly remarkable——and Mountaineers Books is proud to present this book, which is core to our mission, to audiences across North America.

Reinhold Messner, born in 1944 in Villnöss, South Tyrol, is the most famous mountaineer and adventurer of our time. He has accomplished roughly one hundred first ascents, climbed all fourteen eight-thousanders, and crossed Antarctica, Greenland, Tibet, and two deserts on foot. After serving a term as a member of the European Parliament, he now devotes much of his time and energy to his Messner Mountain Museum (MMM) project and to his Messner Mountain Foundation (MMF), which aims to support mountain people worldwide. Visit his website: reinhold-messner.de.

Interviewer Thomas Hüetlin is an award-winning correspondent for the German magazine Der Spiegel and divides his time between Berlin and London. Translator Tim Carruthers has climbed extensively in Europe, the United States, and South America and has translated works by Hermann Buhl, Heinrich Harrer, Anderl Heckmair, and Reinhold Messner.

“I got into high-altitude mountaineering by chance.

In 1969 I was in college when I joined a Tyrolean

expedition to the Andes because Kurt “Gagga”

Schoisswohl, an excellent rock climber, had dropped

out. It was a good year later that I returned to

the University of Padua, after a tragic expedition

to Nanga Parbat and the amputation of several

toes and fingertips, and I found myself unable to

continue my studies. So I became a high-altitude

mountaineer. My rock climbing was hampered by

the amputations, and in particular by the pain in

the ring finger of my right hand, so from then on I

concentrated on the big mountains.”

H: In what way was that trip (1969) a career-changing event?M: It turned out to be quite a spectacular change, but that aspect of it wasn’t important for me at the time. I never really thought about careers. What’s more important is the fact that at that moment I finally gave up the idea of leading a middle-class way of life. I was totally unhappy at college. I somehow had the feeling I was missing out on life. I had been trying to finish my engineering course with the best intentions in the world, but I was just forcing myself to do something I didn’t really want to do.

And then these Innsbruck climbers called me, three days before they were due to leave for South America. They had been planning their expedition for a long time, but I didn’t know much about it, only that my climbing partner Sepp Mayerl was on it, and Peter Habeler, the brilliant Zillertal mountain guide. I knew both of them well from the routes we’d done together in the Alps. I was told that someone had dropped out, so I could come along if I wanted. Tickets, equipment, everything was sorted out, and the clothing would fit me more or less. I wouldn’t have to pay for anything. I had three days to get a visa.

The Andes expedition was the perfect thing for me. I came home fit and more experienced, having climbed two big mountains——Yerupaja Grande and Yerupaja Chico——by new routes [see Free Spirit: A Climber’s Life] and I was hungry for the Alps. I subsequently set about breaking some of the last big taboos in alpine mountaineering.

At the time, 1969, the north face of the Droites was the hardest ice climb in the Alps. It had only been climbed three

times, and never without falls. The first ascent took six days; the fastest, three days. I had attempted the face with my brother in 1965. We got scared and backed off it. Since then, no one had been able to climb it.

H: Pure ice?M: Ice lower down, mixed climbing——rock and ice——above.Back then, we just had ice axes, no modern ice tools. I set off early, at first light, with my axes and crampons, and a rope tied around my waist. Nowadays the route is no big deal, but back then it was scary. By midday I was at the top, watched by some aspiring mountain guides from Chamonix. That got me known in France and brought me my first advertising contract. It was the start of my professional climbing career.

H: Who did you thank when you got to the top? Sepp Mayerl? God?M: Neither of them. I did feel a kind of gratitude, for my good fortune and the courage to do what I did. Then it was all over, and I just cried with joy. But there was no desire to head out the next day and push things another step further. It was okay as it was. There was no God involved, so why should I thank him? And I’d certainly pushed things much too far for my mentor to approve.

H: But you were hooked?M: Hooked on what? I only wanted one thing: not to die. H: You were addicted, a climbing junkie. You’d been high, you’d had your fix, you were happy, you were content, you were calm.M: Yes, I was totally satisfied——calm and excited at the same time.

H: You went back down and thought, “I won’t be doing anything like that again in a hurry.”M: I went down and thought, “No one is going to repeat that anytime soon, not even as a rope of two.” H: And two days later you were off again.M: A day later. The Freney Pillar.

A story for our times, inspiring all Americans to embrace their natural birthright in the great outdoors

• Chronicles the first all-African American summit attempt on Denali, the highest point in North America

• Part adventure story, part history, and part argument for the importance of inspiring future generations to value nature

The nation’s wild places——from national and state parks to national forests, preserves, and wilderness areas——belong to all Americans. But not all of us use these resources equally. Minority populations are much less likely to seek recreation, adventure, and solace in our wilderness spaces. It’s a difference that African American author James Mills addresses in his new book, The Adventure Gap: Changing the Face of the Outdoors.

Bridging the so-called “adventure gap” requires role models who can inspire the uninitiated to experience and enjoy wild places. Once new visitors are there, a love affair often follows. This is important because as our country grows increasingly multicultural, our natural legacy will need the devotion of people of all races and ethnicities to steward its care.

In 2013, the first all-African American team of climbers, sponsored by the National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS), challenged themselves on North America’s highest point, the dangerous and forbidding Denali, in Alaska. Mills uses Expedition Denali and its team members’ adventures as a jumping-off point to explore how minority populations view their place in wild environments and to share the stories of those who have already achieved significant accomplishments in outdoor adventures——from Mathew Henson, a Black explorer who stood with Peary at the North Pole, to Kai Lightner, a teenage sport climber currently winning national competitions. The goal of the expedition, and now the book, is to inspire minority communities to look outdoors for experiences that will enrich their lives, and to encourage them toward greater environmental stewardship.

James Edward Mills is a journalist and media producer. He specializes in stories about outdoor recreation, environmental conservation, acts of charitable giving, and practices of sustainable living. He has worked in the outdoor industry since 1989 as a guide, outfitter, independent sales representative, and writer. Learn more about him at joytripproject.com.

• Proceeds from sales benefit the Xerces Society

For many people, the most immediate impact they can have on the environment is right in their own backyard. Imagine: a little slice of wilderness at home that reflects the natural world, where native plants welcome wildlife from bumblebees to thrushes, and where a mini-ecosystem not only provides protection and wildlife corridors, but enhances and beautifies your yard and neighborhood!

Many gardeners and conservationists in the Northwest want to create a healthy green space, but lack the time to read through lengthy books that catalog hundreds of plants. Nor can they afford to hire a landscape designer to tell them which plants to choose. With expert knowledge from professional landscape designer Eileen M. Stark, Real Gardens Grow Natives covers these issues with clear, concise advice including:

• Detailed profiles of 100 select native plants for the Pacific Northwest, helping eliminate the guesswork for plant choice and placement

• Landscape designs and details for various-sized yards, including sample plans

• Specific planting procedures and secrets to healthy soil• Advice for easy, ongoing maintenance using organic methods• Enhancements to prevent habitat loss and improve bird and pollinator

populations• Ways to incorporate edibles and nonnative ornamentals into your native

garden• And much more!

Accessible yet comprehensive, Real Gardens Grow Natives provides the inspiration and instruction needed to create beautiful, sustainable, and healthy gardens.

Eileen M. Stark is a landscape designer and consultant specializing in wildlife habitat. Her garden designs emphasize permaculture and restoration ecology principles, with a goal of helping conserve resources, increase biodiversity, and harmonize humanely with the environment.

“It is thanks to Simone that interest in this highly challenging type of alpinism [winter climbing] has been renewed.” ——Reinhold Messner

• Adventure memoir from a renowned winter climber at the top of his game

• Moro reflects on some of his most significant climbs

• A bestseller in Italy, this is the first English-language edition of Moro’s story

Simone Moro is a celebrated Italian alpinist who specializes in winter climbing: He holds the record for first winter ascents of 8000-meter peaks——Shisha Pangma, Makalu, and Gasherbrum II. A passionate climber, he is also an accomplished helicopter pilot and founder of a helicopter rescue program in Nepal.

The Call of the Ice was written during Moro’s dramatic winter attempt on Nanga Parbat in 2012——his twelfth attempt on that mountain——during weather delays and other breaks in the climb. Moro reflects on past climbs and partners, including the death of his longtime friend and climbing partner, Anatoli Boukreev, on Annapurna, his mourning when Boukreev died, and his subsequent recovery; Denis Urubko and the nature of climbing partnerships; two attempts on Shisha Pangma; Broad Peak; Makalu; and Gasherbrum II, which he, Urubko, and Cory Richards completed in February 2011 despite near-tragic moments when they miraculously escaped after being swept away by an avalanche. Many of Moro’s climbs do not result in a summit and he explains why his interest lies in the attempt itself. In addition to these reflections, we relive in real-time his attempt on Nanga Parbat, which he and Urubko had to abandon after 51 days and 6600 meters!

“I will go in winter. Again. Yes in winter. Just because it’s my dream. Just because exploration never ends.” –Simone Moro

Simone Moro, born in Bergamo in 1967, has been the coach of the Italian national climbing team, an avid sky diver and dry-tooler, and deeply involved in search-and-rescue in Nepal. In 2001 he received the ‘Medaglia d’Oro al Valore Civile’ (an Italian award given for great achievements or bravery). He is the author of three books. Discover more about Simone at simonemoro.com.

“. . . awe-inspiring reading.” ——Library JournalIn the late 1800s, when women were bound by cumbersome clothing and strict Victorian scruples, a small band of astonishing women explorers burst forth to claim the adventurous life. Plowing their way up the Himalaya and Karakoram or trekking for months through tropical lowlands, these five women (three British, one American, and one French) conducted an unprecedented exploration of Tibet:

Nina Mazuchelli, the first Western woman to see Everest, organized a small expedition from Darjeeling to explore the Eastern Himalaya. Isabella Bird Bishop, bedridden while at home, was always robust on her far-flung, international adventures and wrote nine books chronicling her travels, which brought her to Hawaii, the Rocky Mountains, and across Asia and into Tibet. Alexandra David-Neel at 56 trekked for eight months and more than 2,000 miles from China to Lhasa disguised as a Tibetan beggar. Fanny Bullock Workman, an avowed suffragist, climbed to 21,000 feet in the Karakorum in 1899 and posed with a newspaper whose banner proclaimed, ‘Votes for Women.’ Annie Taylor was a Christian missionary who traveled in Tibetan garb to bring the word of God to the forbidden land of Tibet.

The late Luree Miller was a writer, scholar, and world traveler whose endeavors ranged from driving huge freight trucks through the unpaved roads of the Alaskan wilderness, to co-founding the International School in Bombay. She passed away on July 6, 1996, at the age of 70.

“Free Spirit condenses a lifetime of climbing achievement into 288 pages of nerve-wracking reading . . .” ——Mark Twight

• A mountaineering classic re-released in the Legends and Lore series

• Two new chapters

In Free Spirit Reinhold Messner describes the forces and events that have shaped him as a climber as famous for his discipline as for his innovative spirit. Messner evolved his philosophy of the single free-climbing line with its uncompromising purity of style in the Dolomites and, as equipment and technique developed, he was in the forefront of the transference of fast lightweight alpine methods to the great ranges. Here, he takes us from the days of his first climb (at the age of five) with his father to his brother’s tragic death on Nanga Parbat in 1970 to his later move away from the overcrowded Alps and 8000-meter peaks. He sought fulfillment, instead, in new challenges in lesser known parts of the world, such as crossing the expanse of Antarctica. Free Spirit is an exciting account of the career of a mountain pioneer.

Celebrate a national treasure with this lush and intimate look at the North Cascades

• Experience the region through the words and images of a wide variety of writers, photographers, residents, and visitors

• Developed with more than a dozen outdoors-related organizations who plan to integrate the book into their outreach plans

• The book will be expanded into exhibits, events, and related media in honor of 2014’s 50th anniversary of the landmark Wilderness Act.

• 2014 is also the 50th anniversary of the original North Cascades photo book by The Mountaineers that helped inspire the creation of North Cascades National Park

Washington’s North Cascades hold some of the most magnificent mountains, lowland old growth forests, and pristine rivers on the planet. Some of these features are safely contained within national park boundaries or federally designated wilderness areas, but few people realize how many acres remain unprotected. With a growing regional population leading to tremendous development pressures, The North Cascades draws attention to the many reasons the integrity of this ecosystem must remain intact. It examines the value of the area through a broad spectrum of views——conservation, natural history, ecosystem services, sustainable rural communities, and recreation.

Pulitzer Prize-winning author William Dietrich leads us on a hike through the region, exploring the rich history and challenges facing this rugged habitat just hours away from the metropolitan bustle of Seattle. The North Cascades Institute’s Christian Martin profiles people and communities within the area; poet Gary Snyder shares musings from his time spent as a fire lookout in the region; guidebook author Craig Romano provides ideas on where to visit and what to do, from day hikes to more ambitious backcountry travel; and Richard Louv examines the importance of preserving our local wilderness areas for generations to come. Twenty photographers including Art Wolfe, Ethan Welty, Benj Drummond, Paul Bannick, Amy Gulick, Steven Gnam, and more, bring the North Cascades region, and the book, to stunning visual life.

William Dietrich is the New York Times bestselling author and Pulitzer-winning journalist of fifteen books, including award-winning Northwest environmental texts. His popular historical thrillers have been translated into thirty-one languages. He lives in Bellingham, Washington, with a daily view of the North Cascades.

By Richard Louv

Excerpted from the foreword to The North Cascades

For anyone who has ever lived within visual range

of the great mandibles of the Northwest, the North

Cascades and the Olympics, the distant sawtooth

ridges left their mark. My family lived for a year and

a half in Seattle. From my attic office window, when

the rain and mist lifted, I could see the Olympics.

When my wife and I walked up the hill behind our

house, and looked toward the east, we could also see

that other range of distant peaks, which somehow

seemed more mysterious, a lost world. Exploring

them, we saw and felt the massive strength of old-

growth cedar and hemlock, saw the dark hanging

moss, entered groves and open meadows pinned by

shafts of light, emerged to the long sky and sudden

granite spires sharp enough to pierce the heart. We

were changed by the nature of this place, nurtured

by its beauty, humbled by its danger.

Over the past two decades, researchers have attempted to calibrate the benefits to human health of urban parks and wilderness forests, rivers, of our contact with other species, of star-filled nights seen from a sleeping bag rolled out near a mountain meadow. A growing body of evidence indicates that people of every age who regularly recreate or learn in more natural environments are physically and mentally healthier, happier, and test better in school. Science can never take the full measure of the value of the natural world; in fact, scientists struggle to even define “nature” (we know it when we see it), in part because humans are nature——the watcher being watched. Nonetheless, a growing body of evidence, emphasizing the impact of nature experience on human health and cognitive abilities, does provide a fresh argument for the protection of wilderness and the expansion of nearby nature, but also for cities as potential engines of biodiversity. This argument includes but goes beyond the usual list of benefits, among them the extractive value of natural resources, the efficient engineering of watersheds, the necessity of clean air and drinking water, or even traditional measures of beauty.

Ongoing studies by the Human-Environment Research Laboratory at the University of Illinois show that direct exposure to the outdoors——its flowers, trees, leaves, moss, fungi, dirt; animals, large and small, winged and furred; and natural landscape and horizon——can significantly relieve

symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Scientists at the University of Sheffield in the United Kingdom have found that the more species that live in a park, the greater the apparent psychological benefits to human beings. In related work, researchers at the University of Rochester, in New York, report that exposure to the natural environment appears to lead people to nurture close relationships with fellow human beings, to value community, and to be more generous with money. Kinship with the larger community of species, along with our affiliation with natural landscapes, can build our social capital and help us feel and be more alive.

This research, combined with common sense and millennia of human experience and our survival instinct, is encouraging the emergence of a new nature movement, one that reaches beyond the necessity of sustainability in the forms of better mental and physical health, sharper cognition, more creativity and productivity, and the nourishment of spirit. As a result of this movement, nature-based schools are growing in number. Biophilic architects (who weave natural elements into every aspect of the human habitat), new agrarians who bring food production close to home, landscape architects and designers who renew yards and neighborhoods with native plants, ecopsychologists and nature therapists, and many others are widening the definition of green jobs. Some physicians, particularly pediatricians, now recommend nature time to their patients. Across the continent families are banding together to create multiple-family nature clubs. We see a growing legion of citizen naturalists.

The three major environmental challenges of our time——climate change, the biodiversity collapse, and the disconnect between children and nature——are linked. This book encourages us to go beyond the turning of pages, to personally, directly experience the explosions of ptarmigans on snowfields, the wildflowers in early spring, the shadows of rain and mist, and to carry those memories and pass them on.

My brief relationship with this region taught me how nature, if fully valued, can help build a sense of regional and personal identity. When my wife and son and left Seattle and returned to San Diego, I came to see my own bioregion anew, as a purposeful place all its own. The North Cascades ecosystem, with its staggering beauty and wildness, can give that same gift to many others. This rugged chunk of the Northwest, so close to high-tech Seattle or Bellevue, is a local, regional, national, and worldwide resource of inestimable value, a reminder of who we are, a suggestion of who we could be.

Richard Louv is the author of The Nature Principle and Last Child

in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature Deficit Disorder.

He is also chairman emeritus of the Children & Nature Network

and recipient of the Audubon Medal in 2008.

ROCK CLIMBING AND ME BY TOPHER DONAHUE

WE WERE SITTING AT THE BASE OF THE

NAUTILUS, A ROCK FORMATION KNOWN FOR

PRICKLY OFF-WIDTH CRACKS IN WYOMING’S

VEDAUWOO, WHEN SYLVIA LUEBBEN ASKED ME

IF I WOULD CONSIDER WRITING A NEW EDITION

OF HER LATE HUSBAND CRAIG LUEBBEN’S ROCK

CLIMBING: MASTERING BASIC SKILLS.

A kaleidoscope of thoughts went through my mind as I considered her offer. I was honored that she would ask me. I was sad to think that Craig wasn’t alive to do it himself. I was intimidated by the undertaking of trying to update an award-winning book.

As I sat there below the Nautilus, one of Craig’s favorite rocks, his daughter Giulia was climbing a tricky 5.9, and my kids were playing around on the rock slabs at the base. Climbing is very much alive in our families, and while I’ve mostly stepped away from big alpine climbing because it takes me away from the family too much, I go rock climbing a few times each week. Some people go to the gym, ride a bike, or do yoga. I climb.

I pondered the accident that had killed Craig, an ice wall collapse in the North Cascades. It was the kind of accident that could happen while walking under the icy eaves of a house or driving on a mountain road during avalanche season. There is one big difference: our culture accepts the risk of walking around the yard and driving on wintery roads.

A couple of weeks later I told Sylvia I would like to take on the new edition. My inspiration was partly his family’s steadfast belief in the beauty of climbing; partly the friendship that had taken Craig and me up the first one-day winter ascent of the Diamond and numerous first ascents in the Utah desert, as well as to China and Canada on ice-climbing adventures; and partly a shared passion for showing others how fun it is to climb safe and strong.

I’ve been asked numerous times how I could continue climbing after losing a friend to the sport, and I’m sure people wonder how Craig’s wife and daughter continue to climb after losing Craig. It’s a good question——one I don’t entirely know how to answer——but the best I can do to explain is say that life is risky. Some people avoid nearly all risk. Some of them have high blood pressure. Some have strained relationships with their risk-taking children.

Some look back from old age with regrets about the things they didn’t do when they were young.

To people like Craig and me, risk is part of life; it’s how you manage the risk that matters. Modern rock climbing’s equipment and the use of attentive technique make it quite likely you could climb a hundred days a year for an entire lifetime and never have a serious accident.

In the end, that’s why I’ve poured my heart and soul into this new edition: Craig and I dedicated our lives to sharing the valuable methodology of calculated risk-taking. For much of our society, voluntary risk is a contradiction. For us, being bold while staying safe, teaching while learning, and taking risks while avoiding danger all make perfect sense. Those who have tied into a rope and discovered the beauty of climbing tend to agree.

I’ve climbed with many partners, including some who are paraplegic, strong, weak, blind, obese, old, young, athletic, timid, or fearless ——and nearly every one of them found climbing to be one of the most rewarding experiences of their lives.

Perhaps my mountain guide father, Mike Donahue, put it best: “Life is not found by avoiding the doing; life is a mountain to be climbed.”

COLORADO’S PREMIER OUTDOOR RECREATION GUIDES

SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE ON THE BEAR CREEK NATIONAL RECREATION TRAILBY CHRISTIAN GREEN

Since The Best Fort Collins Hikes was published in 2008, CMC Press has produced a dozen regional pack guides for the state of Colorado. The newest, The Best Telluride Hikes, published last summer, includes 20 hikes within an hour or so drive of Telluride.

One of the trails I had the pleasure of hiking and writing about for The Best Telluride Hikes was Bear Creek National Recreation Trail. One of 39 National Recreation Trails in Colorado and one of more than 1,200 in the nation, Bear Creek provides a window into the area’s rich mining history. The trail, which is less than three miles south of Ouray, takes you to two abandoned mining camps: Grizzly Bear and Yellow Jacket. Although the better-known Red Mountain Mining District, between Ouray and Silverton, had some of the most prolific and richest veins in the world during the late 1800s, the area around Ouray was also very bountiful during the same period. Prior to the repeal of the Sherman Silver Purchase Act in 1893, which made the price of silver plummet, the town had 30 active mines.

What strikes you when you make your way up Bear Creek National Recreation Trail is the effort the miners and their mules had to make in carrying the equipment and materials they needed to excavate and then work the mines. The trail makes its way up the steep slopes that rise high above Bear Creek, which cuts through the narrow valley below. Although the trail is not

overly taxing, it hangs precariously above the valley below for a sizeable stretch, making your pulse quicken each time you happen to glance toward the foreboding drop-off on the right, or southern, side of the trail. During the hike, you can’t help thinking about how many mules and men lost their footing and careened down the mountainside to an unfortunate fate.

When you finally reach the first camp, Grizzly Bear, the drop-off is seemingly less precipitous, as the side of the mountain becomes more wooded. For some reason, trees give you a sense of security, which does not present itself when the only thing between you and the creek below is several hundred feet of rocky slope.

Established in 1875, a year before Ouray was incorporated, Grizzly Bear Mine was actually located on the other side of the canyon and was connected to the mining camp by a bridge, which is long gone. Primarily known for producing gold and silver, the mine was also recognized for generating copious amounts of rhodochrosite, a pink/red colored manganese carbonate mineral that is Argentina’s national gemstone. Although the mine closed during the first decade of the 1900s, remnants of mining equipment and the camp itself are scattered just off the trail.

A bit farther up, where Bear Creek rises out of the valley, and gradually begins to approach and then parallel the trail, is the Yellow Jacket mining camp. Not to be confused with the mine of the same name in Nevada, which was the site of the worst mining accident in that state’s history, Yellow Jacket Mine and camp were smaller than Grizzly Bear Mine and camp; however, the remnants of the camp are in considerably better shape. In fact, a cabin that served as quarters for the miners still stands and contains several cots and other items left behind by the miners. Yellow Jacket Mine is located on the north side of the creek, above the remnants of a stamp mill. Unlike Grizzly Bear Mine, Yellow Jacket Mine primarily produced lead and zinc and reached its peak production around 1915.

The open area around the abandoned miners’ cabin and camp is a great place to grab lunch or a snack, while enjoying stunning views of the Sneffels Range to the west.

“HOW DANGEROUS IS THE TERRAIN” EXCERPTED FROM AVALANCHE ESSENTIALSBy Bruce Tremper

CONSEQUENCES

Once we have mastered the basics of steepness and understand the significance of anchors, we can then consider consequences, which I like to teach using a standard probability-consequence diagram (Figures 2-17 and 2-18). Probability in this case means that the closer the slope steepness is to 39 degrees, the higher the probability of triggering an avalanche. Consequences mean that you visualize where an avalanche would take you and what would happen if you were swept into that location.

The combination of the two determines the danger of the terrain. To determine consequences, ask yourself, “What will happen if the slope slides?” Consequences can range from very safe to absolutely unsurvivable. Most people have an intuitive feel for how dangerous something is if they imagine themselves sliding down through the terrain at 60 mph. If it looks like it’s dangerous, it probably is. Figure 2-16 shows four terrain examples with photos to illustrate their potential consequences.

Avalanches by Slope Steepness

Notice that the danger of the terrain depends on the combination of steepness (probability) and consequences. Any time the slope steepness kicks up above about 30 degrees (including locally-connected terrain), I start paying lots of attention to consequences. If I don’t like the consequences, then I have to either seek other terrain or make very sure the snowpack is very stable (as we will learn in the following chapters). Terrain around 39 degrees with safe consequences (such as a 3-meter-high road cut) are what I call test slopes because you can safely jump on them to see how the snowpack responds. Take some time to work through the examples on this and the following pages to judge the danger of the slope based on steepness, anchors, and consequences.

TAKE-HOME POINT

Good terrain skills primarily involve being a good judge of both steepness and consequences. It’s essential for us to constantly evaluate both as we travel until those skills become completely intuitive.

HOW DANGEROUS IS THE TERRAIN?

Figure 2-16. Here are four examples of terrain that is either un-survivable or has a low probability of a happy ending. In a terrain trap, even small avalanches can bury us too deeply to be dug out in time to save our life. Trees or rocks that we can hit on the way down are extremely danger-ous. Slopes with rocks, cliffs, or crevasses are obviously nasty places. Large slopes not only have larger, more violent avalanches, but rescuers take longer to access the deposition zone, especially when coming from the top of the slope. In any of these situations, rescue has a low probability of success.

REGIONAL INDEXFollowing is an index of titles sorted by region. We’ve indexed guidebooks here to make it easy to find the ones that are near you. Also included are some narrative adventures, because it’s always fun to read stories that took place near where you live or in a faraway place you’re interested in. A little more than half our catalog can be organized regionally. But don’t forget about all those sports instructionals, general lifestyle topics, and wild, sweet, and romantic tales that aren’t in this index. You need to browse through the pages here to find those treasures or, if you know the title, you can find them in the Title Index.
